Preface

IES-5000 Series User’s Guide

CHAPTER 1

System Description

This chapter describes the system features, specifications and applications of the IES-5000 series.

1.1 System Description

The IES-5000 series are IP-based DSLAMs (Internet Protocol Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer) that connect DSL subscribers to the Internet. As a high-performance but yet compact and versatile platform, they can conveniently give telephone company central offices and Internet Service Providers (ISPs) the ability to deliver broadband Internet access to DSL subscribers.

The IES-5000 platform allows for convenient management and support of various DSL technologies. The IES-5000M chassis can hold a maximum of eight line cards, so up to 384 DSL subscribers can simultaneously utilize a wide range of powerful broadband services. Additionally, the DSL line cards are hot swappable; thus, you do not need to interrupt the service of other cards to change or service an individual card. A single management switch card can provide the convenience of centralized network traffic supervision.

The IES-5000 also has dual, hot-swappable power modules that reduce the chance of system shutdown.

1.2 Front Panel

The following figures show the front panel of the IES-5000 main chassis with cards installed.

IES-5000 Series User’s Guide

Figure 1 IES-5000M Front Panel

1.3 Features

The IES-5000 main chassis has slots for hot-swappable DSL line cards and management switch cards.

Backplane

Connect the hot swappable line cards and MSC cards to the backplane. The backplane is the inside rear panel of the IES-5000 main chassis.

Splitter Chassis

The IES-5000ST splitter chassis has slots for splitter and extension cards, and Telco-50 connectors for connecting to the subscribers and the PBX (Private Branch Exchange) or PSTN/ISDN (Public Switched Telephone Network/Integrated Services Digital Network) switch.

Hot Swappable DSL Line Cards

The IES-5000 uses hot swappable DSL line cards.

Hot Swappable Splitter Cards

The IES-5000ST uses hot swappable splitter cards.
